A large proportion of potential DCD heart donors are never even offered—not because of true coronary artery disease, but because of the presumption that a cath is required to rule it out. Modern cardiac CT offers a practical, rapid, and informative alternative that can provide meaningful insights into coronary anatomy and overall heart viability
In this provocative session, CompuMed expert advisor Dr. Brian Lima—a national leader in DCD heart recovery, NRP, and AI-enabled donor heart evaluation— shares how his team at Vanderbilt has successfully incorporated CT into donor evaluation. He breaks down when, why, and how cardiac CT can be applied thoughtfully, and unlock more transplantable hearts while maintaining rigorous recipient safety.
